Has anyone ever had the crystal replaced on a Colt Ocean?
If so, about how much did it cost.
Thanks.

If it is out of warranty, expect to pay around $200 for a new crystal. The problem is that Breitling's service centers (just like most other Swiss companies) take forever to complete a repair. You might be better off requesting a complete overhaul, pay a bit more and you will basically have a new looking watch at the end. It all depends how much you want to spend to get your Colt back to like new condition.
If you are in USA, I have not heard too many good things about the US service center. You may want to ship it to Switzerland for work.

Chip is right about Breitling service - at least in the USA. There is only one service center in the US. I needed to send my watch for a repair and was told by the AD that, while they do excellent work, Breitling's usual turnaround was between 8 and 12 weeks! They do, however, turn around warranty repairs much faster. I had mine back in less than 4 weeks. -Ben
